Cooking Steps
- In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the dried guajillo, ancho, and pasilla chilis for 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Remove stems and seeds, then soak in hot water for 20 minutes.
- Drain the soaked chilis and blend in a food processor with garlic, onion, Roma tomatoes, cumin, oregano, and cinnamon until smooth.
- In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the beef chuck roast, searing for 5-7 minutes until browned on all sides.
- Pour the chili paste over the seared beef, stirring to coat. Add beef broth and apple cider vinegar, bringing to a gentle simmer.
- Cover the pot and reduce heat to low. Slow-cook for 2.5 to 3 hours, stirring occasionally until the meat is fork-tender.
- Remove the beef from the pot and shred it using two forks. Return it to the pot, mixing with the sauce.
- Warm the corn tortillas and serve the shredded beef in each tortilla, garnished with chopped cilantro and lime.
